Town boss satisfied with team’s campaign

-

"Obviously there'll be some lads out-of-contract who we'd like to keep but realistica­lly, we'll be up against it in trying to do so.

"And then there's some who I know we'd like to keep in an ideal world but I also know that, from their personal perspectiv­e or from the perspectiv­e of their longer-term careers, might need to go elsewhere to fulfil their potential, to get the minutes they need to get to get where they could potentiall­y get to in career terms.

"So I'd like to think we'll keep hold of the majority of the players, we'll lose some who are out-of-contract and there are one or two others who need to go to pastures new potentiall­y, to really kick start their career."

Reflecting on the season, Millington said: "Satisfied with the vast majority of it.

"The way we approached the first-half of the season and we developed that reputation for being incredibly difficult to play against, well organised, hard working is a real badge of honour. That's something everybody in the league said about the team.

"Then we changed it, we went after being more creative and scoring more goals, which was always going to be the plan at some stage.

"And I think we started to show a different side to the group that highlighte­d what good footballer­s we've got and how we can adapt.

"We hear an awful lot from opposition managers about how they've got a style and a way, which is all well and good, but being adaptable and being able to implement a number of different styles is a much greater skill, and this group have shown they've got that ability.”
